Alabaster is a very good Dungeon Doggos Master, he makes sure everyone has thier turn in the spotlight, and is quick on his feet with improv, even with some of the wacky things that the players have come up with. "Well, do you really want to start a fight with the Tavern Keeper?" he says calmly to a younger, feisty looking pupp. He explains a few more things, and the young pupp reconsiders and instead buys drinks for the farmers to get some information on the nearby woods. "Good thinking, because after a nice night's rest, you and your companions find yourself traversing the thick local woods..."
Chapter 2 - The Forest
You and your companions have done research on your route to the castle, but as adventurers you know that things can lurk in wooded areas. These woods seem fairly tame, and are beautoful to boot, so its nice to be around nature. As you make your way through the woods, there are a few interesting things that you stumble across...

Rolled 1d6, and got a 4!
Snowstorm was unfortunate enough to encounter an owlbear in the wild, and boy, did it look mad. However, she thought through something she'd heard before - owlbears usually aren't vicious, they normally only attack anything if they're afraid that their young is in danger.
"It's okay," She said, in a soft tone of voice, "I'm not here to hurt you, or your chicks if there's any nearby..." She knew that owlbears couldn't speak common, but she hoped that just her body language and voice would be enough to calm it down - she didn't want to have to hurt it.
Snowstorm is rolling her tail stat to show the owlbear that she's a friend, not foe!

The owlbear puffs up its feathers and fur, watching Snowstorm carefully...
Snowstorm rolls a 9 + 5, for a total of 14, succeeding!
The owlbear seems wary at first, but after a tense moment, decides that Snowstorm isn't a threat. The owlbear hoots towards the woods, and Snowstorm is able to watch a pair of owlbear cubs run out of the underbrush, following after their momma as she heads into the woods on the other side of the path. A rare sight indeed!
